COMMENT OF THE DAY

The Newspapers Ordinance

HE interest which such an influen- Tua British newspaper as the Manchester Guardian displays in

Hongkong's new (though be it noted six weeks old) legislation governing local newspapers and news agencies is flattering, and, we are quite certain, kindly intended. We trust, however, that the Guardian has not been some- what misinformed and has been led to base some of its editorial comment on false premise.. The inherent freedom of the press is as jealously guard- ed in Hongkong 18 in England and elsewhere. Nevertheless, the responsibly-minded, newspapers of the Colony have been just as much conscious as Government, of, the grow ing tendency of certain vernacular journals to substitute the liberty of. the press for licence to the detriment of the good name of journalism es a whole. We proffer no sympathy for publications which flaunt the ethics and principles of journalism and simultaneously challenge the authority of established law and order. And we know the Manchester Guardian. would feel just as strongly on the subject and in the same way. The unhappy, fact exists that it has been necessary for Government to consolidate the old low relating to newspapers, and while, as it has been officially proclaimed, journals of repute need have no fear of the new. ordinance, the revised legislation does permit the Authorities, through the medium of the courts, to invoke action bost calculated to act as a deterront to the publication of offensive, libellous and treasonable matter. Curiously, the Manchester Guardian takes parti cular exception to the fact that the now regulations, become a permanent part of the laws of the Colony, and says this le oven more obnoxious than the Singapore regulations, which have been effected as an emergency law. We are unable to share this attitude. On the contrary it fe because the new regulations_ara hedged around with nafeguarda inst arbi
